Subject: Prayer Request...

Hi!

I forgot to ask you to pray for my Mom. She is getting a very serious back surgery at John Hopkins in Baltimore this Thursday. Her surgery is supposed to be at 7:30AM Thurs April 5th. She has had previous back surgery in Chambersburg about 4 or 5 times, but they did not do the right thing. So now she has gone to specialists at John Hopkins that only deal with her type of issue and in her age group (she is 69). The surgery is supposed to be about 6 to 8 hrs and she is to be in the hospital for about 1 1/2 to 2 weeks recovering. The Drs said that if she did not get the surgery right away that she would not be able to walk. She has been in tremendous pain the past months and her pain tolerance is incredible so we know she is hurting. Anyway, your prayers are appreciated during this time.

My Mother does not know the Lord. My wife and I plan to be with my Mom & Dad Wednesday night, Thursday and then over the Easter weekend.

Lord bless,
Brother Mike
